About this listen
From the quiet waters of the Odense-Au rises a voice that never truly fell silent.
In The Bell-Deep, Hans Christian Andersen weaves a haunting meditation on memory, sound, and the unseen histories that linger beneath the surface of the world. Long ago, a great church bell broke free from its tower and vanished into the deepest part of the river. There it remains—speaking still—its voice carried through water, air, and time.
As the bell tells its ancient stories, listeners are drawn into Denmark’s distant past: forgotten churches, lost kings, hidden crimes, and the quiet witness of nature itself. The bell’s voice is not one of terror, but of remembrance—recording human deeds long after stone has crumbled and names have faded.
Narrated with lyrical restraint by Monica Shome, The Bell-Deep is not a tale of fear, but of endurance. It is a reflective folktale about how voices persist, how truth travels, and how the world itself listens long after we are gone.
A timeless classic of European literature, The Bell-Deep invites the listener to pause, listen, and hear what still echoes beneath the calm surface of things.
